Foundation of Chinese Civilization

中华文明的特点是"三个唯一":第一代文明中唯一存留下来延续至今的,延续至今的文明中唯一没有信仰的,没有信仰的文明中唯一具有世界性的;崛起于周原的周人或周族,是中华文明根基的奠基者;周人提出的天下、中国、天命、革命等一系列概念或观念,为中华文明奠定了以人为本、以德治国、以礼立序、以乐致和的文明范式;中国当前的转型从根本上是文化或文明层面的转型,是建立符合中国国情,既能延续中华传统文化又适合市场经济的核心价值体系。

The specific feature of Chinese civilization is the only civilization of first generation lasting up to now, the on- ly one without belief among the civilizations lasting up to now, and the only one of the world nature among the civiliza- tions without belief. The Zhou people or Zhouxuan arising from the Zhouyuan, the capital of West Zhou, is the founder of Chinese civilization. A series of ideas or concepts like world, China, destiny, revolution, etc. have laid out the civi- lization paradigms with the idea of putting the people first, ruling the country by virtue, forming the order with etiquette and achieving harmony with music. The current transformation in China is basically one at the culture and civilization layer. Our mission is to set up a core value system which conforms to Chinese national condition and not only extends Chinese tradition but suits market economy as well.
